Without an extreme wide angle lens, the only way to fit this vast array of pipework, hydraulics and gantries into one picture was to stitch shot together. This is a 2 shot panorama of cell 4 in all its glory. It is fairly impossible to convey the size of this place through photographs alone; suffice to say, everything about the site is BIG. By far the best explore I've done yet, and certainly the most tense for parts of it!
I have a colleague who is a passionate beekeeper in his spare time. He brought two crates of frames to work just because I needed one small picture for our web.

Both cell and phone found in Alcatraz. It was pinker than I imagined in there.
Superb exhibition "Chiharu Shiota - The Soul Trembles" at the Grand Palais in Paris.
Cell (2020)
Chiharu Shiota's inspiration often emerges from a personal experience or emotion that she expands into universal human concerns. The questioning of life and death appears very high in her work.
"Cell" evokes cells multiplying as they can be observed under a microscope. She links this image, greatly enlarged with elements normally invisible to the naked eye, to a tiny character. The millions of cells in the organism represent a complex universe, and the human takes his place between this small world essential for life and that of the cosmos which is even larger.
Chiharu Shiota expresses the idea that each element from the smallest to the largest is connected by the same vital energy that circulates and transforms, but which does not disappear: "Passing from life to death is not an extinction, but a process of dissolution into something larger. If this is the case, then there is no longer any need to fear death."
Life and death belong to the same dimension according to her.

Superbe exposition "Chiharu Shiota - Les frémissements de l'âme" au Grand Palais à Paris.
Cellule (2020)
L'inspiration de Chiharu Shiota émerge souvent d'une expérience ou d'une émotion personelle qu'elle élargit en préoccupations humaines universelles. Le questionnement sur la vie et la mort apparaît très top dans son travail.
"Cellule" évoque des cellules en train de se multiplier comme on peut les observer au microscope. Elle relie cette image, fortement agrandie d'éléments normalement invisibles à l'oeil nu, à un personnage minuscule. Les millions de cellules dans l'organisme représentent un univers complexe, et l'humain prend sa place entre ce petit monde essentiel pour la vie et celui du cosmos qui est encore plus grand.
Chiharu Shiota exprime l'idée que chaque élément du plus petit au plus grand est relié par la m^me énergie vitale qui circule et se transforme, mais qui ne disparaît pas: "Passer de la vie à la mort n'est pas une extinction, mais un processus de dissolution dans quelque chose de plus vaste. Si tel est le cas, alors il n'y a plus lieu de craindre la mort."
la vie et la mort appartiennent à la même dimension selon elle.

Cancer is unchecked cell growth. Mutations in genes can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death. As a mass of cancerous cells grows, it can develop into a tumor.
Two shot vertorama with the TS-E. Had to crop out a lot because I was low to the ground and was unable to level my tripod. I need to get one of those hotshoe bubble levels!
Cell #7 by Sybilla Poortman & Meffi
Cell #7 lends a hand!
Thanks Sibi & Meffi! All the best to you...
The ability of cancer cells to move and spread depends on actin-rich core structures such as the podosomes (yellow) shown here in melanoma cells. Cell nuclei (blue), actin (red), and an actin regulator (green) are also shown.

Today I was given access to the cells in Richmond Castle. Originally built in the 19thC to house prisoners, they were most famously (infamously)? used to house Conscientious Objectors during WWI (1914-1918). The cells are not very big, probably about 10' long by 7' wide. There's no heating and the prisoners were guarded by serving military that probably had no sympathy whatsoever for the inmates. The inmates, along with their guards and other users of the building left their mark through graffiti. Somebody has actually counted and there are 2,300 examples of graffiti dating back to the mid 19thC. The cells are not open to the public, so I feel privileged to have been given access and allowed to take pictures. I hope to visit again soon.
This is just a picture of some cells from a sample slide that we were using to test out our fluorescent microscope... they are pretty sweet cells though eh?

We were invited to Construct3D, a conference on digital fabrication and education, to make an art piece that could be collaboratively created with attendees. For that, we created Puzzle Cell Complex, a 5 foot gyroid surface assembled out of 69 unique flat panels which fit in a suitcase and can be put together from a simple page of instructions. The three-dimensional form is encoded in the shape of the panels and how they connect. The piece features three layers of pattern.
The concrete 'cot' and heavy metal-reinforced wooden door inside one of Pudu Jail's many cells. Inmates have the space inside, approx 8x3 feet, all to their lonesome selves.
It won't be long until the 115 years old Pudu Jail is totally demolished, to make way for redevelopment.
I'm glad I had the chance to go in there and take some pictures, and I count myself lucky that I only had to spend 2 hours inside....unlike some, whose restless souls have never really left this place at all.

This microscopy image provided by Dr. Carl June, shows immune system T-cells, center, binding to beads which cause the cells to divide. The beads, depicted in yellow, are later removed, leaving pure T-cells which are then ready for infusion to the cancer patients. Scientists are reporting the first clear success with gene therapy to treat leukemia, using the patients' own blood cells to hunt down and wipe out their cancer. They've only done it in three patients so far, but the results were striking: two appear cancer-free up to a year after treatment, and the third had a partial response. Scientists are already preparing to try the approach in other kinds of cancer.
